Comment on your analysis of white feminism

Hello hello!

It is such a important topic you decided to tackle and you've done a good job! What could be interesting would be to add how white feminism has impacted women of minority ethnic backgrounds maybe in a more 'everyday' example. While researching a bit on the topic (I was really interested after reading your article), I found that in many accounts, white women writers were not aware of their white privilege, thus criticizing the intersectional lens that feminists of ethnic minorities often adopt. It would be interesting to analyze that perspective, showing that white feminism arose as a response to this lack of awareness. On another note, I found that according to a CNN exit poll for the 2016 US Presidential Elections, 54% of white women voted for Trump, while only 4% of black women did so, revealing how the latter were more aware of systemic discrimination against them, in addition to gender bias and sexism. This could also be a compelling topic to talk about (just a suggestion!)

Otherwise, good inclusion of an intersectional lens in your discussion!

Best of luck
